This is, themore deeply a church or individual professor is steeped in the spirit of moneygrabbling, or intemperance, the greatertheir abhorence of dancing. This appears to be a kind -of convenient scapegoat on which the sins of the congregation arc laid, that they may be borne inthe wilderness. Let the preacher atany time submit to a gag which shall,on some special occasion, forbid hisopening his mouth for the dumb, or reproving a wealthy distiller, or fat usu-Ter, who grinds the poor to pay pew recv.and forthwith wo get a fresh anatheniuShow us a wealthy dea-cons's wife who will haggle with a widow to get washing done for twelve and ahalf cents a dozen, and then pay her intrade, or give two dimes and four coppers for twenty-five cents, and we willshow you one who will take a spasmover the iniquities of a cotillion. Wenever knew the rule to fail, and havewatched its workings so long that whenever any one begins a lecture on dancing we suspect him or her of boing aworshipper of mammon. Old Christian, in his long journey, danced forjoy, but the man with the muck-rakewas too busy. Nothing appears bettercalculated to contend with the hard,money-loving spirit of our age, than music and dancing. It tends to melt thishard crust which the dust of ledgersforms around the hearts of our people,and there is no place to which wc shouldgo with a subscription paper for a charitable object with more hope of successthan a social party where all were dancing to the music of two good violins anda trombone."on dancingis in full vogue here.
